Bush's ex-spokesman throws colleagues under the bus - then backs over them Wed, 28 May 2008 07:25:00 -0700

As President Bush's press secretary, Scott McClellan pushed the administration's policy on Iraq and other national issues. In his new memoir, well, not so much.

The Bush White House made "a decision to turn away from candor and honesty when those qualities were most needed" - a time when the nation was on the brink of war, McClellan writes in the book entitled "What Happened: Inside the Bush White House and Washington's Culture of Deception."
The way Bush managed the Iraq issue "almost guaranteed that the use of force would become the only feasible option," the book contends, according to accounts Wednesday in The New York Times and Washington Post.

"In the permanent campaign era, it was all about manipulating sources of public opinion to the president's advantage," McClellan writes.
